San Diego and Australian coastal culture blend beautifully at Westerly Public House, where golden hour lasts all day at the bar. Sip craft cocktails, local brews or rare wines at the surfboard-inspired bar or out on the chic patio. ā€œWe want our hotel guests and the local community to feel comfortable and think of this place as a safe haven,ā€ says General Manager Lauren Goodman.

“They’ve been craving that human interaction, and I think this is a safe, fun place to find that.ā€

Westerly Public House boasts a 4,000-square-foot courtyard where chic design meets playful charm and local creativity shines. Art deco tile, a colorful mural by Betty Larkin, and pieces by San Diego artists bring the space to life. With plenty of lounge seating and tables, this indoor-outdoor haven is perfect for making memories and new friends.

The unique Cali-Aussie cuisine gives this spot its edge and introduces an ever-evolving menu. Utilizing fresh, locally sourced ingredients, Executive Chef Jesse Paul presents mainstays like Piri Piri Chicken, Fish Tacos and the ā€œBloomin’ Mushroom,ā€ Westerly’s take on a popular chain restaurant appetizer. Another delectable dish includes Chef Paul’s specialty Pot de CrĆØme for dessert. A passion for sustainability and zero-waste cooking allows his creativity to shine in every dish, often giving way to off-menu items and exclusive specials.

From trivia nights to yoga Saturdays, Westerly Public House is a go-to spot for fun, connection and community vibes. Catch up with friends over shareable bites and prosecco popsicles by the courtyard’s lush plant wall on warm afternoons. On cooler nights, cozy up near the fireplace under string lights and sip a Westerly Revolver with Starward Whisky. Though you’ll spot nods to Aussie culture, the heart of Westerly Public House is rooted in its local community.
